no message came through when I filled out a e-mail I needed help setting up my new phone. When a person needs help with something they should get it.

Hi, NATASHA S Tlg. This is Maria from Straight Talk Wireless.

We are deeply sorry to hear about the charge made in your bank account and for all the trouble you have encountered with our customer service and in porting out your phone number. The provider will send a request to Straight Talk to release the number. Straight Talk will then process the request. It may take a few minutes to a few hours however it may take up to 24-48 hrs.

Allow us to straighten things out with you. For further assistance, please chat with us using this link http://bit.ly/2CuBvXO or contact our customer care at 1-877-430-2355.

I would like customer service to call me but you can't call my phone because it says no service every time I try I never get through and like to talk to someone speaks English

Not receiving incoming text from other providers to my straight talk phone.

Will you please allow me to receive a text message from my family despite what carrier they have. I can't even receive a text from a family member 3 blocks away with the exact same phone because they have a different carrier, or a dr reminder on a different carrier, or a therapist on yet another different carrier... or anyone else who does NOT happen to subscribe to Straight Talk.

User's recommendation: Allow straight talk customers to receive text from all providers.
